"Honor is simply the morality of superior men."

Societies have risen and Societies have fallen, but man, the Unit, the germ-plasm persists with the rising of the sun and the rising of the tides. Man is not only the ‘clay’ but, also the ‘potter’ - the paramount determinant. His fate is in his own hands absolutely within the length of his tether.

If the struggle is ordained for us why not enter into it with kingly courage, with dauntless delight. Why not go forward, daring all things, to conquer or to die.

What is death that it should make cowards of us all? What is life that it should be valued so highly? There are worse things than death and among them is a life of dishonour. All men lead dishonourable lives who serve a master, with hand or brain.

[debarbat]

Cursed be the time that despises bravery and powerful men!

Le courage est le vent qui nous emmène vers les rivages les plus lointains ; c'est la clé de tous les trésors, le marteau qui forge de vastes empires, le bouclier sans lequel aucune civilisation ne pourrait durer. Le courage est l'illimité de soi-même, c'est l'assaut que l'idée livre à la matière sans se soucier des conséquences. Être courageux, c'est vouloir être crucifié pour une conviction, c'est affirmer, même dans le dernier frémissement des nerfs, même dans le dernier soupir, l'idée pour laquelle nous vivons et pour laquelle nous mourons. Maudit soit le temps qui méprise la bravoure et les hommes puissants !

“Any moment might be our last. Everything is more beautiful because we're doomed. You will never be lovelier than you are now. We will never be here again.” ― Homer, The Iliad

“The Survival of the Fittest” is the scientist’s translation of the heroic age’s “Vae Victus”. Grim and harsh it may appear to nervous souls, but it is true to nature.

Through the Future shines the Sun of Splendid Struggle.

Heroic Natures there lead on as they led on at Illion.

The Natural Man steps forth once more, in all his daring grandeur.

[debarbat]

A man who has nothing which he is willing to fight for, nothing which he cares more about than he does about his personal safety, is a miserable creature who has no chance of being free, unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself.

- Sir Walter Scott, The Bride of Lammermoor

The Present is our Domain and our chief duty is, to take immediate possession thereof.

Respect comes from a man’s strength plain and simple.

It requires a stout rope, a firm post and muscular men to hold an UNBROKEN colt. But when by Force and petting he has once been subdued, i.e. tamed, educated, saddled, bridled, he may be led anywhere, even with a piece of twine in the hands of a little child.

Here and now is our day of torment! Here and now is our day of joy! Here and now is our opportunity to eat or be eaten to be lion or lamb! Here and now it is war to the knife - no escape, no retreat. Choose ye this day, this hour, for no Redeemer liveth!
